I think the idea was that it would be an alternate backend if people wanted 
this functionality.  Also apparently at one time the idea was that the 
plotting code would be more backend-agnostic, so it would require some care 
to back engineer that... but not horrible.

See http://ask.sagemath.org/question/819/a-functional-java-applet-for-2d-plots 
and http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5448 for more details, and 
perhaps a more current status.

Building an interactive mpl instance would be great; I know nothing about 
mpl's capabilities in this regard.
